CD41, CD61 (CD41b, GP2B, GP-IIb, GPIIb, GP3A, GP-IIIa, GPIIIa, GTA, HPA3, Integrin alpha 2b, ITGA2B, Integrin beta 3, ITGB3, Platelet Glycoprotein IIb of IIb/IIIa Complex)

CD41/CD61 is also known as GpIIb/IIIa. CD41/CD61 is a calcium-complex dependent heterodimer and is expressed almost exclusively on platelets and on their precursors, the megakaryocytes. This complex is an activation-dependent receptor for RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp)-containing glycoproteins such as fibrinogen, fibronectin, von Willebrand factor, thrombospondin and vitronectin. It plays a central role in platelet aggregation and haemostasis.
